connections
 
Open the signal converter housing rear cover, using the plastic wrench supplied. The terminal 
connections are labelled. The standard connections are shown below. 
 
 
Before starting to wire: 
 
• check that the power supply corresponds to the power board installed. 
• check which output option you have selected: this will be indicated on the underside of the rear
housing cover and on the gauge nameplate.
 
Terminal layout : non – Ex version 
 
X = Terminal not used (X) = Terminal not used except for RS485 outputs 
 
Ensuring a good contact and protection of wire strands 
 
Local regulations concerning electrical wiring must be followed and obeyed. If no details are 
given, we recommend : 
• crimped metal sheaths over the wire strands 
• power supply cables should be rated for at least 500 V, with a cable diameter of 0.5 to 1.5
mm / 0.02” to 0.06” (non-Ex applications only).
• the output current cable diameter should be from 0.5 to 0.75 mm / 0.02” to 0.03”
 
 
PE Ground Terminal notes 
 
The internal earth connection shall be used according local applicable installation standards, in 
Europe the Low voltage Standard prescribes the connection of the yellow/green cable in case of 
230VAC.
